The article of furniture includes a shiftable section l2 consisting of arectangular supporting frame l3 formed of an angle-shaped front memberit having a vertical and a horizontal leg l5, l6 respectively and withthe leg [6 extending l5 rearwardly from the upper end of the leg l5, apair of inverted yoke-shaped vertically disposed side members ll, I8,each including a top l9 and front and rear legs 28, 2| respectively ofangleshaped cross section, a rear frame member 22 of angle-shaped crosssection formed of a horizontal leg 23 and a vertical leg 24 which mergesat its lower end into the rear side of leg 23 and spaced transverselyextending parallel brace members 24a. The horizontal leg I8 of themember i4 is mounted upon the ends of the top I8 of the yokes l1, [8.The vertical leg l5 of the member I4 is positioned against the forwardends of the tops of the side members ll, 18. The horizontal leg 23 ofthe member 22 is positioned upon the upper 30 face of the tops of themembers ll, l8 at the rearward ends of the latter. The brace members240. are positioned against the lower faces of the legs 18 and 23 of themembers l4 and 22. The members if, H, I8, 22 and braces 25a. aresuitably 35 secured together. Secured to the lower faces of the tops ofthe side members I1, I8 are spaced parallel cushioning wires 25. Securedto the lower face of the legs I6, 23 of the members i4, 22 respectivelyare transversely extending par- 40 allel spaced cushioning wires 26. Thewires 25 and 26 are interwoven and are arranged above the braces 24a..

The rear legs 2| of the members ll, I8 are provided with a verticalcutout, as indicated at 28. 45 Secured to the front and rear legs 20, 2|respectively of the members l1, l8 and below the cutouts 26 aretransversely disposed combined brace and supporting members 21 ofangle-shaped cross section. The members 21 are arranged below 50 thebraces 24a. Each member 21, in proximity to a rear leg 2|, is formedwith a lengthwise extending slot 28. Secured upon the upper face of eachmember 21 is a slidable coupler 29. Fixed to the upper face of eachmember 24 and arranged 55 opposite member 29 is a stationary coupler 30.The coupler 29 is arranged over the slot 28 and is slidable relative tothat member 2'! upon which it is mounted. Interposed between thecouplers 29, 36 and having its ends anchored to the upper ends of thesaid couplers is a coiled controlling spring 3|. Extending through thelower end of the coupler 29 is a connecting pin 32 which passes throughthe slot 28 and is attached to a vertically disposed angle-shapedretarder 33 for a purpose to be referred to. The retarder 33 bodilyshifts with the coupler 25 when the retarder 33 is moved rearwardly by ameans to be referred to. The retarder 33, in connection with the pin 32,coupler 29, spring 3| and coupler 30, forms a cushioning means for apurpose to be referred to. The front and rear legs 20, 2| respectivelyof the members ll, 53 are provided with casters 34 at their lower ends.

Positioned upon the wires 24, 25 is a cushioning structure 35 of thecoiled spring type. Mounted upon and surrounding the structure 35 is apadding 36 which seats upon side supports 37, a front support 38 and arear support 39. The supports 31 and 38 are arranged at the sides andfront of the frame |3. The support 39 extends above the rear of theframe IS. The supports 31 and 38 are of greater width than the support39. The supports 3?, 38 and 39 are secured to the frame 53. The supports31 and 38 have their bottom edges arranged slightly above the members32. Secured to the outer face of supports 3?, 38 and 39 and enclosingthe padding 36 is a facing 49 of any suitable fabric.

The structure 35, padding 36 and facing 40 constitute the bottom of adavenport or a bed bottom and which is supported by the frame l3.

The article includes an adjustable combined davenport back and bedbottom element 4| comprising a rectangular frame 42 of less length andof substantially the same width as the supporting frame |3. The body offrame 42 throughout is of angle-shape in transverse cross sectionthereby providing its front, sides and rear with inner and outer legs43, 44 disposed at right angles to each other. Connected to the legs 43of the sides of the frame is a rectangular resilient skeleton member 45.Secured against the inner faces of the legs 43 and 44 of the front andrear of the frame and flush with the free edges of said legs are woodenstrips 46 which are arranged in parallel spaced relation. The frame 42is completely encased by a fabric covering 47 which is suitably securedto the wooden strips 46. The front side of casing 41 has connectedthereto spaced grommets 48 having their inner faces registering withspaced threaded openings 49 formed in the legs 44 of the front of theframe 42.

The article includes a supporting structure for element 4| when thelatter is in davenport back and bed bottom forming positions. Thestructure 5| is adapted to be normally housed within and to extendrearwardly from the frame I3 when the structure I2 is shifted forwardlyrelative to the structure 5|. When the structure 5| is housed in thesection l2 the article of furni ture will be in the form of a davenport.When the structure 5| extends rearwardly from the frame l3 the articleof furniture will be in the form of twin beds. The structure 5|functions to support the element 4| horizontally when the article offurniture is in the form of twin beds and functions to support theelement 4| in an upstanding position to provide the back of a davenportwhen the article of furniture is converted into a davenport. Thestructure 5| is slidably connected to the braces 27 of the frame l3 andthe connection is such to provide a cushioning action at the extent ofthe forward shift of section |2 relative to structure 5|. The structure5| comprises a rectangular frame 52 supported on front and rear verticallegs 53, 54 respectively provided with foot pieces 55. -Bracing members56 connect the legs 53, 54 to the frame 52. Extending forwardly fromeach side of the frame 52 is an angle-shaped arm 5! formed with anoutwardly directed leg 58. The retarder 33 includes a horizontal leg 59and a vertically disposed leg 10. The legs '10 of the retarders 33 aredisposed in the path of the legs 68 of the arms 61. The front and rearmembers 1|, l2 respectively of the frame 52 seat upon the end members 13of frame 52. Anchored upon and secured to each end member 73, as at 74,as well as extending upon rear member 12 is an angle iron 75 formed of ahorizontal leg 76 and a vertical leg 77. The angle iron is also securedto end member 13, as at 18. The means which anchors the angle iron 15 tothe legs 12 and 13 extends through the horizontal leg 15 of the iron 15.The leg 7! of angle iron 75 opposes in spaced relation the inner face ofthe inner portion of the leg 44 of the frame 42. The leg 1'! of angleiron 15 has interposed therebetween and inner portion of leg 44, spacingcollars l9. Extending through the leg H of angle iron 15 and leg 44 offrame 42, as well as the spacing collar 19, is a pivot 80. The pivots 80pivotally connect the element 4| to the rear of the structure 5|. Thepivots 89 are arranged in proximity to the ends of the inner portion ofthe leg 44 of the frame 42. The cover 47, which forms a part of element4|, is formed in a suitable manner, as indicated at 8|, to provideclearances for the angle iron '15 when the element 5| is in the positionshown in Figures 3 and 4. The element 4| folds forwardly relative tostructure 5| to provide the davenport back and downwardly to provide thebed bottom.

The article includes a pair of arm rest elements 82 of like form and ofangle-shaped contour. Each element 82 has an arm rest 83 securedthereto. Each element 82 is formed with a vertically disposed forwardarm 84 and a horizontally disposed rearwardly extending arm 85. Theforward arm 84 of each element 82 is pivotally connected at its lowerend with and in spaced relation relative to a side of frame l3 and inthe manner as shown in Figure 9. The leg 34 has an opening 86 throughwhich extends a pivot bolt 81 formed with a reduced inner threaded end88 which, in connection with the remaining portion of the bolt 37,provides the latter with a peripheral shoulder 89. Mounted on the bolt87 is a spacing collar 90 which abuts against the grommet 9| formed inthe facing 40. The reduced portion 88 of the bolt 8'! extends throughthe grommet 9| and an opening 92 formed in a support 37. The frame l3,at each side, is formed with a threaded opening 93 and each of whichaligns with an opening 92. The reduced end 88 of bolt 8'! threadedlyengages with the wall of the opening 93. The horizontal arm 85 of eachelement 82 has its rear end provided with a depending lug 94 formed withan opening 95. Extending through the opening 95 is a pivot bolt 95having a reduced threaded inner portion 97 which extends through thegrommets 48 and threadcdly engages with the wall of the opening 49.

The article of furniture includes a cushion or mattress 98 which, whenthe article is in the form of a davenport, provides the removable seattherefor and when the article is in the form of a twin bed is employedto provide the mattress for the latter in a manner as is shown in Figure3. The height of the cushion 98 is such that when the article isconverted intoa twin bed and cushion 98 used as a mattress for one ofthe beds, it will be flush with the upper face of the non-extendiblesection 52.

It will be assumed that the article of furniture is in the form of adavenport, such as that shown in Figure 4c, and it is desired to convertit into a twin bed. The structure 12 is shifted forwardly, which byexerting a forward pull on pivot 81 through arm rests 82 causes the backforming element 4 to move forwardly and downwardly on the pivots 80until the element 41! assumes the position shown in Figure 3 mountedupon and extendedrearwardly from the structure 5!. As the structure i2is shifted forwardly, the structure 5i extends rearwardly from thesection l2. As the structure 5! is extended rearwardly from the section!2 the legs 68 will coact with the legs 10 whereby the springs 3! willbe expanded to set up a cushioning action. When the structure 5! andelement 4! are in the position shown in Figure 3 they will hold thesprings 3| expanded. After the element 4| and structure 5! are in theposition shown in Figure 3 the cushion 98 is mounted thereon. When it isdesired to convert the structure from a twin bed into a davenport,cushion 98 is removed from element 4!, the front edge of the backstructure is then released from engagement with the rear of the seat andthe housing section I2 is then free to run back over Section E to theposition shown in Figure 4 to form a davenport. After the element 4!,elements 82 and structure 5| have assumed the position shown in Figure 4the cushion 98 is mounted upon the section 12.

The article of furniture, if desired, may have as parts thereofremovable pillows, as indicated at 99.

The section I2 is a davenport body forming section and will be termed inthe claims as a shiftable housing structure as it functions as a housingfor the stationary supporting structure 5i when the latter is notarranged'to horizontally support, in superimposed relation thereto, theelement ll. The elements 82 also function as means for retaining theelement 4| in an upstanding position when the latter functions as a backfor the davenport or divan, The element 4| has secured thereto a pair ofspaced annular aligning lifting members I00.
